Gas Log Sets

Our gas logs are built by the R.H. Peterson Company (RHP). Once again, we choose to offer only the best quality products available. RHP has been the industry leader for over fifty years. We have had great success with their products as they have given our customers years of dependable service.

Gas logs are not intended to supplement the heating needs of the home; one would choose an insert if they were hoping to do so. Gas logs may generate some radiant energy, but since they damper is open and the glass doors must be opened when burning the gas logs, the convective heat loss may negate the radiant heat gain.

Some would look to "ventless" gas log sets, but our experience is that the odor and moisture with such products create unacceptable conditions. We do not offer "ventless" products.

We have installed gas log sets from 12" lengths up to 60" lengths. Sizing is determined by the dimensions of the fireplace. There are many styles of logs and burners from which to choose.

When installing gas logs we are required by code to block the damper partially open so in order to minimize heat loss, we are required to also install glass doors. The only other option is the Flue Sentinel.

The Flue Sentinel

This product allows an exemption from the requirement to install glass doors with gas log sets. It is a mechanical chimney top damper that is interlocked with the gas log valve. When the logs are off the damper is tightly sealed. When you switch your gas logs "on" the damper automatically opens until you switch them "off". We have professional electricians that connect the necessary power and interlocks.

A cold flue does not vent properly upon start-up of your fireplace. At start-up, there is cold air in the flue blocking the warm air and products of combustion from venting through the chimney, and forces it into the living space through the firebox.	Flue Sentinel ensures a warm flue and enhances proper ventilation. At start-up, there is warm air in the flue. Gas combustion products are properly vented up through the flue, escaping through chimney.
